It takes some looking at several properties, but sure enough hard work will pay off when you work with the right Real Estate agent!
I've met a lot of people that I've helped find their new home, a Pier de Terre, just a place in the Big City to unwind and catch the sites, or a quant apartment, with river views.
Whatever the case or story may be, for me it's about connections and building relationships. Seeing the satisfaction in the faces of my buyers and clients, reminds me why I do this job. I'm a REALTOR.
Today's real estate market should be seen and approached locally, not globally, especially when you are looking for a home in a given City, State and or Country.
We need to know and become aware of the current market trend of sales in the area that we are interested in. This puts the awareness of available properties in our hands and the current market sales for that particular area. Thus, being focused on the market locally will help you be an educated consumer and able to make the best offer on a property you have set your heart on!!!

ReplyDeleteNew York City is seeing an uptick in home foreclosures
Queens and Brooklyn have been hit the hardest

Foreclosures are on the rise in New York City as more than 1,100 cases arose in October, reports the New York Post. The unfortunate stats show that there was a 32 percent increase from September to October, with Queens being dealt the worst blow out of all the boroughs.
According to real estate research firm Attom Data Solutions, though things aren’t as bad as when the foreclosure crisis first hit in 2007, it’s still up 37 percent from last year and continuing to spike. Brooklyn was hit pretty hard too, experiencing a 20 percent foreclosure increase, which pans out be about 365 new cases.
These numbers strongly contradict the state average where foreclosure rate only rose by 10 percent and even the national average of homes being foreclosed on have been seeing a year-over-year decrease, dropping by 8 percent in October.
Experts fear that the foreclosure increase will continue and possibly worsen once the federal Home Affordable Mortgage Program (HAMP) expires on December 31st.
“People think the foreclosure crisis is toward the end, and it really isn’t,” Rose Marie Cantanno of the Foreclosure Prevention Project at the New York Legal Assistance Group told the Post.
